Abstract

This chapter depicts, from a comprehensive perspective, the state of the art of the mobile Web application development, ranging from the traditional transcoding techniques used to enable mobile browsing from early Web-enabled devices to innovative and ambitious proposals based on detecting an extensively described context and adapting to it. The chapter discusses the main solutions being adopted for adapting mobile Web applications and contexts to multiple devices and contexts, and outlines the newest trends on full-fledged context-aware adaptation that give a step forward on device-based adaptation and pursue the creation of applications that satisfy the emerging user needs about context- and location-based information and services. As a case of success, the MyMobileWeb project is studied in depth.
